Recommended and experimental values of the earth surface shift troughs parameters when conducting the stope works

Abstract

The correspondence of angular and linear parameters of the undermined rocks displacement and the crustal movement to their values determined according to the normative document has been established. Based on the surveying observations over the reference points movement on the earth surface and the stope face advance, the empirical curve of the trajectory of the earth surface maximum subsidence is determined from the points of maximum subsidence. The curve of the maximum subsidence of the earth surface points when removing the stope face from the face entry has been experimentally established, which allowed to determine the location of the point of the beginning of the crustal movement and the dimension of the stope mine working corresponding to this situation. The coordinates of the characteristic points of the earth surface subsidence above the stope face have been determined. A unified method has been developed for determining the angular and linear parameters of the undermined rocks displacement for the two stages of shift troughs formation on the earth surface. The nonconformities have been established between the recommended parameters and the experimental data normative documents during the anthracite seams mining.
